Guji Guji--Syntax Trees

Guji Guji is a funny story about a crocodile who thinks he is a duck. Watch Robert Guillaume read the story on YouTube:

At the beginning, a crocodile egg rolls into a duck's nest. The baby crocodile hatches (= comes out of the egg) and thinks he is a duck.

Try to make a syntax tree for these sentences:



An egg was rolling on the ground.
It was a crocodile egg.
The crocodile egg rolled into a duck's nest.
Guji Guji learned quickly.
Crocodiles can hide under water.

Guji Guji [Rd]

Guji Guji is a story about ducks and crocodiles. How are they similar? How are they different?

Ducks and crocodiles both: 
   lay eggs, eat fish, eat bugs, swim in water (lakes, streams and rivers), ... [Can YOU think of some more similarities?]

Only ducks:
   have feathers, can fly in the sky (YOU think of some more)

Only crocodiles:
   can eat big animals, have scales (YOU think of some more)

Use these ideas to make a mind map. yEd is free software that makes beautiful diagrams.
